Chapter 50: A little more pressure on you
As the first port of the Angry Waves City, Haijiao Port had a long period of glory.
Later, with the relocation of the city center, Haijiao Port gradually lost its former scenery. Coupled with the presence and contention of gangs and the need for smuggling by the powerful, the squalor and chaos made it difficult for the Empire to effectively regulate the area.
Over time, as long as Haijiao Port pays a certain amount of taxes on time, the city administration department will default to the operation of the city in another order.
Gangs in Cape control the port by controlling the dockers, and some large fleets are also very powerful at the docks.
Yesterday, Hansendton, the captain of the Lucky Princess, was killed by the newly appointed Detective Meteor of the Secret Service, causing quite a stir in Cape Harbor.
Immediately after that, the "evidence" of Hanselton's involvement in the assassination of the former CIA inspector was released, and the CIA immediately seized all of Hansendt's property.
Four cargo ships, including the Lucky Princess, were confiscated.
The Lucky Princess is a large wooden merchant ship with a sail steam engine and dual power.
With a total load of 5,500 tons, it is equipped with ten smoothbore naval guns.
The waterline area was covered with a layer of steel armor plates.
By the time Luke arrived by car, Pisco, who had arrived first, had already taken control of the dock, and the Imperial agents occupied the high points of the Lucky Princess.
Negotiations with Director Holt were held on the deck of the Lucky Princess.
A table, two chairs, and a parasol.
Luke waited for a while, and the convoy with the sheriff's sign drove to the berth where the Lucky Princess was located.
A large group of sheriffs took control of the scene, and Director Holt boarded the ship.
The Secret Intelligence Bureau and the Public Security Bureau have put up such a big position here, which has attracted the attention of the entire port. Soon, the whole city knew that something big was about to happen here that affected everyone in Haijiao District.
"Director Holt, please be seated."
Luke warmly shook Holt's hand and invited him to sit down on the other side of the table.
Karina served them a cup of coffee and stood behind Luke, her hand clutching the wand hidden in her cuff.
Pisco stood on the bridge, his eyes scanning the sheriffs who had come aboard with him.
Other Imperial agents have their hands on the hilt of their swords, ready for battle.
When Holt saw the battle set up by the secret intelligence bureau, he was very unhappy and said to Luke, "Detective Meteor...... You and I are both high-ranking public officials of the Empire, and we should meet on a formal occasion.
You look like a gangster, detrimental to the majesty of the Empire. ”
Luke took a small sip of his coffee before putting it down.
"Director Holt, you're mistaken. I just happened to be here investigating Hanselton's assassination of the former CIA Detective, and you were in a hurry to see me, so I chose to meet here.
If you feel that talking here is detrimental to the majesty of the Empire......
You can wait for me to finish investigating the case, and then make an appointment to find a place that matches our identities to talk. ”
Make another appointment?
In the afternoon, the sheriff's office and the secret intelligence bureau in the entire city of Angry Waves will turn their focus to capturing elves in the clear sky. The bigwigs above have already said that the competition for the interests of the wharf in Haijiao District can be put aside for a while, and everything is based on the safety of the city.
Now the Elven Clearsky has the "Heart of the Red Dragon Neil Cologne", the Book of Calamity, and the Wand of Wisdom.
Based on the strength she can take on Wilred, God knows what horrific things she's going to do in Raging Waves.
The magnates of the city have all heard that the elven clear sky killed more than a hundred people in one night in the Cape District.
This can happen in the Cape District.
But it must not happen in the rich area!
Holt came to Luke this time to join forces to suppress the battle for the docks between the gangs.
If this matter cannot be resolved before going to the city administration hall for a meeting in the afternoon, his current position is very likely to be lost.
Holt was under a lot of pressure.
"Detective Meteorite. The matter is urgent, and we don't need to make an appointment. You should already know what happened at Oulu Academy last night.
The elven clear sky is very dangerous, and the city government department held an urban safety meeting in the afternoon to concentrate all its forces to capture the elf clear sky.
The fight on the side of the Axe will affect the coordination of all the city's security services. As important agencies in Haijiao District, the Sheriff's Department and the Secret Intelligence Bureau have the obligation to quell this incident as soon as possible.
You and I will issue the order now. ”
Luke chuckled and replied, "I said a long time ago not to fight, it's because some people are too greedy."
Since Director Holt said stop, I can give you this face.
But how is the dock divided? ”
"We are all Imperial officials, and the docks are not under the jurisdiction of the Sheriff's Department and the Secret Service," Holt said. I think it's still according to their own rules, whoever has it now has as much as they have. ”
Luke laughed even more contemptuously.
The Axe Party has completely withdrawn from the docks since the death of Jumu, and their interests have long been taken away. Together with the interests of the docks controlled by other personnel under the secret intelligence bureau, a lot of them have also been encroached upon.
Whoever accounts for as much as he wants.
The headquarters of the Crazy Axe Party has been on guard for two nights, and so many people have died, is it lonely?
"Director, you're insincere."
With that, Luke stopped talking, and picked up his cup again and slowly drank his coffee.
Holt said, "Let's divide according to the existing results first, and then we'll talk about it when we finish solving the matter of Elf Clear Sky." ”
"Humph!"
Luke lazily accosted him.
If you can solve the clear sky, I have nothing to talk about with you.
There is no hurry.
Let's wait for the Axe Party and Shelley to "speak".
Seeing Luke drinking coffee vigorously, finishing a cup and refilling a cup, Director Holt was anxious.
But I don't want to show it, so I can only hold on to it in order to fight for more benefits for myself in the interests of the dock.
However, before Luke's second cup of coffee was finished, a sheriff hurriedly boarded the ship and put a report in Director Holt's ear.
Holt's face suddenly turned extremely ugly, and he questioned Luke, "Detective Meteor, what do you want to do!" Why are the Axes killing people everywhere in the Cape District?
Why did the Black Mamba also participate in the attack with spies!
If you mess up Haijiao District during this period, aren't you afraid that the City Administration Department will hold you accountable? ”
Luke replied, "The City Council of the Angry Waves City is not in a position to hold me accountable unless they overthrow the Golden Shield Royalty.
Therefore, you should be careful when you speak, otherwise the CIA will investigate your position.
Captain Black Mamba is carrying out my orders to hunt for Elven Clear Sky in the Cape District. This is a commission from the City Administration Department to the Haijiao District Secret Intelligence Bureau, and I have the original circular there, and you can see it if you want to see it.
As for the Axe......
The elf Clear Sky killed their boss Giant Tree, and there was nothing wrong with them seeking revenge on Clear Sky.
On the issue of dead people, we need to further verify. You can't say they killed someone, they killed someone.
If they can catch the Elven Sky, I'll consider applying for the Good Citizen Medal for them. ”
